The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
Yuanrun's sister-in-law secretly glanced at Wang Xiuxiu, and seeing that she didn't intend to speak, she lowered her eyes and was lost in thought.
He could only change the subject, saying, "Hey, let's not talk about that. Has anyone noticed the watch that Shen Youyou is wearing?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison, "No."
Wang Guifen suddenly exclaimed "Oh!" and slapped her forehead.
"I've seen it before. It was around noon, and there weren't many people in the courtyard."
“My little devil insists on eating popsicles, otherwise he won’t take a nap, so I had no choice but to go out and buy them for him.”
"I met Chen Youyou on the road. She was holding her hand up to the sunlight."
Wang Guifen suddenly realized, "I knew it! The sun was blazing, and there wasn't a single bird in the sky. What was she looking at?"
"So, the result was that they were holding up their watches and taking pictures?!"
The round-faced sister-in-law nodded, "Her watch is a miniature camera from abroad. We don't have these here. I heard about it from my nephew."
His nephew works in national defense.
"Then she must have secretly taken pictures of our entire compound?!"
"Oh no! She's my neighbor. She always stands on the balcony. I thought she just wanted to keep watch, but who knew she was taking pictures secretly."
"So she's going to take my bright red underwear?!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
After everyone finished laughing, Sister-in-law Yuanrun got down to business, "Ruan Tang, you and Xiuxiu were both at the hospital that day, tell us what happened that night."
Xu Ruantang shook her head, "I stayed in the ward that night and didn't go out. I only heard footsteps and gunshots, and I don't know anything else."
Wang Xiuxiu nodded in agreement, "Me too."
"I know!"
A woman spoke up timidly, "I heard that quite a few of them..."
She stopped mid-sentence, glancing timidly at Wang Xiuxiu.
Wang Xiuxiu was puzzled by her gaze, touched her face and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you looking at me like that?"
The woman smiled sheepishly, "I told you, Xiuxiu, don't be angry, it has something to do with Company Commander Lu."
Wang Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment.
She quickly smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, go ahead and tell me. I'm not angry."
"real?"
The round-faced woman gave the other woman a push, "Hey, hurry up and say it. You're stammering. Anyone who doesn't know better would think you've been thieves."
"Then I'll tell you."
"That night, Shen Youyou called Company Commander Lu to her hospital room, saying that no one was with her and she wanted Company Commander Lu to stay with her!"
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Shameless!"
"How could this person be like this? Xiuxiu was hospitalized with her, how could she have the nerve to let another man accompany her?"
"If she had any sense of shame, she wouldn't have done something like being a spy."
Some people were indignant and wanted to continue cursing, but the round-faced sister-in-law stopped them, saying, "Let her finish speaking first, what's the rush?"
“These enemy agents also lingered in the hospital for a few days. Company Commander Lu and his men spread false information, saying that in order to ensure safety, they always carried the deployment map with them.”
"They also spread false information that Uncle Chen's second uncle had seen the enemy. In their panic, they decided to use a honey trap."
"Chen Youyou drugged Company Commander Lu's water, hoping to knock him unconscious so he could take a picture of the defense map."
"Once the plan succeeds, the people waiting downstairs will leisurely withdraw, and then the entire building will be blown up."
"This is another of their plans: to create panic and delay the leader's schedule."
"That's why almost the entire enemy force came out that night, which allowed Company Commander Lu and his men to wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"
The timid sister-in-law became more and more excited as she spoke, her eyes shining and her eyebrows dancing with excitement.
After hearing this, someone couldn't help but ask, "Was Company Commander Lu really drugged?!"
"No way, she was just pretending to be drugged. Shen Youyou ran away after taking the photos. When she met up with her accomplices, she was pulled aside and shot in the process."
"It's said that the man was her lover, but unexpectedly, when disaster struck, she was abandoned by him."
Xu Ruantang recalled the scene where Yang Weidong had said a few more words to her, and Shen Youyou suddenly became angry.
It turns out that the Shen Youyou of that time was the most authentic her.
Wang Xiuxiu remained silent throughout.
While everyone was deep in thought, she suddenly spoke up: "Sister-in-law, how do you know all this?"
These kinds of things are usually kept secret, and even if you hear about them, you wouldn't be able to hear them so clearly.
This version is far more detailed than anything the people at the hospital knew that day.
Lu Shishen didn't dare to mention the details when he told her.
The plump woman grinned and said, "Girl, are you silly!"
Wang Xiuxiu: "......"
Before she could speak, Sister-in-law Yuanrun continued, "Since the news was able to get out, it proves that they want us to know."
"Otherwise, do you think the military would remain completely silent?"
"Perhaps this is to give us all a warning, to keep us vigilant at all times, especially us military dependents!"
Everyone seemed to be deep in thought.
At that moment, footage of the joint military parade began to play on television.
Everyone's attention was drawn to it, and they began to watch intently.
The first to appear is naturally the local country.
Soon, rows of green military uniforms appeared in the picture, their uniform steps and unassailable demeanor were unique.
"Oh, it's Company Commander Lu!"
"This, this, is from my husband!"
"Ah, I should have called the children to come and see."
The women who were originally sitting stood up excitedly, almost wanting to lean over the screen to find their husbands.
Shouts rose and fell from the small room.
As it approached the time for the children to get out of school, the people at Wang Xiuxiu's house gradually dispersed.
Xu Ruantang and Wang Xiuxiu took Lu Xiaozhao back to their home for a meal.
She was too lazy to do it herself.
Wang Xiuxiu thought that with just her and Xiao Zhao, adding another person would just mean adding another pair of chopsticks.
During the meal, Xu Ruantang thought of her round-faced sister-in-law from earlier that day and asked Wang Xiuxiu, "Is Sister-in-law Zhang from the political commissar's family?"
Wang Xiuxiu nodded, "They had barely left when they came back to subtly try to persuade me."
Her voice was calm, and her emotions were not fluctuating.
Xu Ruantang looked at her with sympathy and said, "If you really find it annoying, just say so."
I expect there will be more of this kind of ideological work to come.
The reason they let her stay in the compound was probably to make things easier later on.
Everyone is heading towards landing.
No one asked Wang Xiuxiu if she was willing.
Wang Xiuxiu smiled gently, "No need, I'll just ignore it."
"I'm planning to hire workers to start renovating my house, do you want to come along?"
Xu Ruantang thought for a moment and shook her head, "I won't pretend for now. Let's discuss it when Chen Ji comes back."
Wang Xiuxiu was decorating her house because she was in a hurry to move in.
She wasn't in a hurry to put it on; she had other purposes for it.
Xu Ruantang ladled a bowl of fish soup and handed it to Wang Xiuxiu, "Sister Xiuxiu, when Lu Shishen comes back, your house will probably still be unfurnished. What are you planning to do then?"
Should I continue living under the same roof as Lu Shishen?
She probably didn't want to.
Wang Xiuxiu took a sip of soup, looked up and smiled, "I've already asked Huan Yuanliang to help Xiao Zhao find a school. Once the school is settled, I'll look for a house."
